I so wish that Kamryn would get the rest of her teeth overnight tonight. It seems like it would be a better thing to get the teething agony overwith in one shot rather than sporadic episodes. The constant waking at night,the 5:30 am wake up times, the fussiness during the day and the drooling is just no fun for any of us. But this too shall pass. To be honest, tonight I loved the snuggling before bed and holding her sleeping in my arms. This beats the crying fits we've endured the last few nights at bedtime when nothing would soothe her. Maybe the tooth is finally coming through.
We may start calling her little playgroup "the glamour girls" since they all have these special handmade shirts that spell out their name in jewels. One of the families is moving to Texas, and the mom, Lisa, surprised us all at her going away party with these adorable shirts that she made. We will miss Lisa and Lena and wish them the best in their new home.
Kevin & I enjoyed a dinner out alone (without the kids) last Saturday night thanks to our friend Delilah. I thought maybe Kamryn would be angry at us for leaving her, but she did fine. Probably because Delilah and the boys gave her lots of TLC.
Brendan went to Boy Scout camp last week, and the whole family helped him celebrate the end of it by attending a family picnic at the campgrounds last Friday night. He loved showing us where he swam, did bb guns, archery and canoing.
We went to a local town "fest" this past weekend, and boy did it make us homesick for the fests back in the Western suburbs of Chicago. Everything is done on such a bigger scale there with hot air balloons, carnival rides, games, well-known bands & fireworks. The highlight for the boys here was either the water balloon launching station or getting the chance to dunk a local policeman in the water tank. We had fun just getting out of the house though and walking around.

Hi,
Poor baby, it doesn't seem fair. You have to go through all that for teeth that you don't even get to keep!!!! Like you said though, any excuse to hold that little darling. Speaking of drool, is that drool coming from that little mouth in the picture!! Poor baby, but I'll bet it's a good excuse to show off her wardrobe, changing a number of times during the day.
Sounds like Brendan had fun. Good for him. What's Matt up to this summer?
Love the shirt with Kam's name on it. What a nice thing to do. Doesn't it hurt when you have to say goodbye to good friends. You can keep up the friendship though, just like you are doing with the blog.
Thanks for the pics,
Love to all,
Lin
